I absolutely love this set of Wooden Egg Maracas. The designs are super cute and varied, so there's a little of everything. And the painting is done neatly, so they are more than just a child's toy .These are going to make a nice, quality decoration for my home for Easter. I can't wait to find a cute basket to put them in! They're a little bigger than an actual chicken's egg- I took pics of a couple in my hand so you can see the approximate size. They're wood, not real heavy, and they do shake like maracas. Oh, and they came individually wrapped in plastic to protect their paint from getting nicked from rubbing against each other. A really nice tough. I absolutely love them, so I can say I recommend them!
